Active Human Alpha 1-Antitrypsin Reference Standard

• Cat.No.: SERPINA1-4H

Specification

• Description: Alpha 1 proteinase inhibitor (Antitrypsin) has a?characteristic?secondary structure?of beta sheets and alpha helices. That is a serum glycoprotein synthesized in the liver. It acts as an elastase inhibitor, primarily inhibiting neutrophil elastase, chymotrypsin, collagenase, leucocytic proteases, plasmin, and thrombin, which may be released during inflammatory reactions in the lung. Also Increase in Antitrypsin occurs as an acute phase response to tissue necrosis and inflammation. Serum level of Antitrypsin is elevated in rheumatoid arthritis, bacterial infections, vasculitis, and carcinomatosis.
• Species: Human
• Form: Liquid
• Bio-activity: The level of alpha 1-Antitrypsin in the serum was quantified using ELISA.
